No time to eat dinner before the show? The SoFun Committee will be running a snack stand before the show and we will have pizza for sale at $2 a slice! All proceeds will be split between the Hoppers in support of thr fundraising drive for Heart & Stroke, and the Hoop Troop so they can purchase some much needed new equipment.
